Finality

"They used to say I was like a cat, loving no one, only purring to get what I wanted. But that's not true. I was in love with the whole world and all that lived in its rainy arms."
-L. Erdrich

It's a rainy Friday, the kind of rain that makes me want to be outside, taking it all in. Instead I am here, in front of my screen, dreaming about Brahms and his wonderful clarinet quintet, which I will be listening to live tomorrow. Excitement abounds.
